the british prime minister is slammed by athens after he proposes blocking greeks and people from weaker euro zone nations from entering the u.k. . suggests britain should be looking to its own banking scandal before you post things judgement on others more from me in london in just a moment. as violence in syria boils despite the best efforts of peace makers it's a lack of food and soaring prices that's taking their toll on people who haven't even taken sides in the conflict. and europeans are helping their part of them in decision to reject the controversial anti piracy act which is spread widely condemned for violating internet freedom.

but from our studios in central moscow you're watching archie with me and he's now it's two pm here in the russian capital our top story in athens has lashed out against the british prime minister over his remarks the u.k. could restrict greeks from entering the country the move could also target citizens of other struggling eurozone nations but athens said london should be looking closer to home to solve its own financial trouble arches laura smith reports. there's been speculation about massive waves of immigration from not just greece but from other economies that are struggling at the moment david cameron in response to that said that britain could potentially close the doors to immigration from these struggling euro zone countries including greece he was under pressure really to say there was a lot of speculation about this kind of migrant issue. and he said if the borders

came under unusual stress then the legal position was that britain could take action and close down those borders greece has responded quite a it was the it was the passover party one of the parties in the leading coalition at the moment that said that david cameron should look to his own house he should keep his own house in order before commenting on these issues the the greeks are referring there to this scandal that's recently broken about barclays bank rigging these into bank lending rates making them seem much more favorable than they were the greeks say that he shouldn't rush the markets in the euro zone with talk of restricting immigration he should in fact look to barclays and the banking sector here in this country and get that in order for before he does the greeks of course are already feeling humiliated by the fact that they have to rely on the european bailouts to keep their economy afloat and so of course they react very strongly to

any comment like this david cameron has to be very careful here because the u.k. is not part of the year is and so any comment he makes of this nature looks like somebody who's just on the outside looking in david cameron again is under increasing pressure internally to set up a referendum on whether britain whether the u.k. should remain a part of the about a month ago he really stepped in there attracting a lot of negative commentary from euro zone leaders who said that he is blaming the eurozone for britain's own economic troubles of course although britain isn't part of the euro zone it is deeply dependent on the euro zone for its own economic stability to greece have said that he's talking about policing measures that violates all the principles in the freedoms in the rules essentially of the e.u. and also that comments like this damage the trust that is really essential for keeping the euro zone together under these circumstances. well lawyer george catalyst says david cameron's proposal is offensive and illegal i think that

everybody in b.c. feels insulted because of these words. but released it could demagogic statement and i am referring to what we use make the demo could see because a prime minister knows that it is currently the european know what he has said the every movement of people is one of the fundamental reforms with the european union it is another the description of any state to grow keep it the movement of citizens of other european states to his third story are going to meet the i mean there's the president that it just want to they're going to put us or he feels because of internal problems that he again now confronts. let's say dangerous you not only going to see but i think ultimately. such big legal action because i say i would just mention this is one of the fundamentals of the european union if we do not cover the movement of people this is of course going to through the european union

we are feeling a deep sentiment of national humiliation exactly because they are treating us like citizens or second or of them this is not something we cannot stand anymore. well as we've been reporting britain's currently gripped by a rate breaking scandal barclays former boss tried to distance himself from troubles as he was quizzed by m.p.'s bob diamond was also grilled on allegations the bank of england and political top brass were involved and over charging interest on loans you case third largest lender has been found guilty of fixing a systemic interbank lending rates that's a homeowners and businesses overcharged at the height of the financial crisis but the government's ordered a full part of the entry inquiry into the country's banking sector london is deliberating on whether any criminal charges can be pressed later our financial expert mike kaiser explains why he thinks the response will not match the crime. but there has to be a deterrent in place. to deter criminal behavior and david cameron was

very quick to say that when the the looters were out there stealing four pound bottles of soda that they should be sent to jail even though they were ten or twelve years old but when confronted with the unequivocal evidence that bob diamond and his crew of barclays had been stealing millions and colluding with the bank of england to rig interest rates on the library front he don't sure whether this requires a response or not and that's why you society over there in britain is collapsing in front of his eyes just why the economy can grow is because there is this asymmetrical approach to law and justice where if you're rich and you're a crony of cameron there's one set of laws if you're somebody else then oh that's a totally separate sort of law. we watch the kaiser report in over an hour here on our t.v. now it's not all doom and gloom for europeans at least it's internet users as mass

protests against the controversial anti-piracy treat your act to persuade evolve makers to scrap it. thank you for greed comes under. fire on independence day in the u.s. as the occupy movement sweeps through philadelphia reports. the u.n. observer mission chief says violence in syria has reached unprecedented levels but major general robert mood has warned that bloodshed must stop before the monitors can resume their operation operations which were suspended more than two weeks ago due to safety concerns the opposition meanwhile claims the city of homs has come under heavy shelling by persian forces loud explosions and heavy gunfire have been reported and while diplomats and politicians are struggling to find ways to contain escalating violence in syria ordinary people there are simply trying to survive and it's not just bombs and bullets that threaten their livelihoods but also soaring

prices and a lack of basic goods archie's there's the calf and reports the conflict in syria that is now being called a civil war there was more bloodshed and killing in syria today the newest massacre in syria while bullets and body bags may lead news headlines on syria but death is not the only toll of this war ordinary citizens who haven't picked sides in this conflict now live in daily fear for their lives and now they're also paying dearly with their livelihoods prices for food everything are very highly were under growing a crisis. if you do a hard now serious currency has lost more than half of its value since the fighting began it used to cost about forty seven syrian pounds to buy one u.s. dollar before the war one hundred pounds for a dollar one year later this inflation unfortunately is only set to get worse with the government now printing more cash just to stay afloat now was once

a pillar of syria's economy but an embargo has cut revenues for the government by nearly one third now those sanctions may have been aimed at the government but of course it is ordinary syrians who are now paying at the pump four thousand that's about sixty dollars. used to be and for a moment but now you need twice as much as is impossible to find or spend hours waiting for and it's not just fuel for cars that's difficult to come by a single tank of cooking gas can now eat up about half of the average syrians monthly paycheck and that's huge and with shortages spreading across the country even those supplies are guaranteed so if you're reaching through we still have a few we want to lose we want to eat but we have no. this is how we have to live there's no other choice now according to the united nations more than one point four million syrians are already at risk for hunger and those who still have access to food are finding that prices are soaring out of their reach now let me

show you what i mean when it comes to the average syrian a carton of eggs used to cost about one hundred and ten syrian pounds before the war after the uprising that amount of money is enough for just two eggs now take sugar for example the price of a bath like this has tripled in cost them out of money one used to spend on it now by about this amount and even staple food like rice i mean this is a really common food in syria probably enough to feed a small family for about a week like this has doubled in cost now when it comes to the arab spring the cost of food and fuel has played a critical role as prices rose so did anger in arab nations the same holds true in syria were simply surviving and making ends meet as now a daily battle in the end the price of bread may prove to be a bigger obstacle to peace than a loaded gun for r t i'm lucy catherine of in moscow. now the road to peace in syria is blocked by the burden of sanctions that are fueling the conflict from grass roots so says the country's minister of domestic trade an opposition member

and cartridge emil feels it's nothing more than hypocrisy from the west. syria is in a difficult situation in social and economic terms yet it has been isolated which primarily hurts the people of syria rather than the assad government therefore the attitude of the west in isolating syria is pure hypocrisy and their claim that the embargo is damaging the assad regime is own substantiated we believe that once we manage to bring about national reconciliation and restore unity we will be able to end the blockade the way it has happened time and again throughout history both in syria and in other parts of the world. so as the full interview coming up here on our team in about twenty minutes. they

europe's internet users are celebrating the rejection by the e.u. parliament of a controversial anti piracy treaty act is an international trade agreement aimed at preventing large scale intellectual property theft but critics claim the treaty with threaten people's web freedom outside the e.u. actor has been signed by the us canada japan and several other countries i call the kevin o. and talk to los k. from the pirate party u.k. who says the rejection by the e.u. parliament is a historic victory for citizens over lobbyist. despite the wild claims that the copyright lobbyists there was no actual proper evidence to show that act was going to help anyone either in terms of jobs or in terms of growth for the economy i think it's worth pointing out that attitude was not just rejected it was nine hundred and crushed. her david martin said this was actually.

a rejection of the measure that was supported your commission ok the question for europe at the mobile. as it stands do you think they'll ever be a pan global set of rules coming into place i think what's really clear is that it was a fundamental mistake to try and mix so many different things together but also equally it's a fundamental mistake to try and negotiate to such a treaty behind closed doors with also without countries like russia india and china are. typical of our western countries too we can just push something through i know who i'm actually looking forward to us changing and now actually moving away from the negative and industry agenda i'm actually thinking about oslo to be protecting digital and actually talking about how shared culture and actually access. to the internet and to technology. benefit.

one citizen. there is a school of thought that today that x. is being turned in europe where piracy is going to be encouraged is one step forward it is a free for all no in your eyes not a top i think it's worth remembering what the many objections to act were was essentially setting up a surveillance system of turning turning your internet service provider into a copyright but it was not just about intellectual property also. like a medicine some form to get a warning that to get the facts the ability of developing nations to access a portable generic drug so this is a tremendous victory against actually. damaging agreements. and there are no online restrictions whatsoever on our website available for you

twenty four seventh's here's some of the stories worth checking out there right now the strong arm of why in the west bank human rights groups had. out at israeli soldiers caught pushing a nine year old palestinian boy to the ground before kicking him read all about it online. and all three arrested members of the n.c. kremlin punk group have gone on a hunger strike strike i should say find out what's push them towards such a move and watch the videos of some of their most outlandish performances at our t.v. dot com. is .

the official. your only phone on called talk from the. video. and. now in the palm of your. on the dot com. occupiers from across the u.s. have returned in full force to philadelphia where they held a mass demo on independence day a protest against corporate greed inequality and that began over the weekend dozens were arrested after it was met with heavy police presence can reports. the occupy movement together here in philadelphia on the fourth of july was certainly a symbolic move the area is widely known as the cradle of liberty where the

necklace and if independence was first read aloud the u.s. constitution was adopted and as occupiers here in philadelphia went about exercising their rights at least two people were arrested one of them because police wouldn't let him crosses certain lines with the sign over all there was heavy police presence but the gathering was very peaceful so far u.s. authorities have a big take occupiers from all of their camping locations all across the country and those were largely very peaceful protests more than seven thousand people have been arrested since the beginning of the movement last fall many of those demonstrators were charged and still face trial one of them malcolm harris who was arrested in new york the judge demanded twitter to hand over his wits and user information on the buyers took it as a message whatever you say may well be used against you may be a scary tactics to many now might be aware of speaking their mind freely online and there's many goals and demands of the occupy movement and in covering it's clear

that what they want is a society that is economically just and where there's a quality where people under the law are held to the same standards that banks would not get away with debt and get bailed out and people would be told that they have to pay debt they would not get bailed out economic injustice the cozy relationship between big businesses and the government those are some of the things that they're focusing on one thing is clear that is too many people in the u.s. are unhappy with business as usual in washington but most of them don't take to the streets there in silent protest they support neither of the candidates and say they feel money has more power in washington then their voices i'm going to shut down in philadelphia. coming up in a few minutes the perp. this is high but the methods are questioned. if you're a terrorist and if you're smart you wipe your laptop before you process and you

have a dummy you know so that no one will ever access your mail israel's thai border controls many harmless tourist straight back on a plane home but can fail to spot a terrorist as we report in a few minutes. let's have a look at some other world news in brief now a final report into the handling of the nuclear crisis at the fukushima plant last year has been released by japan's part of the met the findings claim both the government and plant operator failed to take measures to avoid the disaster the company had said there was nothing you could have done against the huge wave massive criticism and angry protests broke out following the accident which led to all nuclear plants being shut down in the country although recently one reactor has been switched off. the independent tunisian body tasked with reforming the country's media house resigned the commission decided government censorship and

this information for halting its activities it was created following the ouster of the ousting of president ben ali and has spent the past year drafting a new press code to guarantee freedom of speech and independence of the media was the country where regional revolutions in the name of democracy were born. another huge protest in rule has seen one person killed and one of its leaders beaten and detained it comes just a day after three people died in clashes between police and demonstrators ruffians are opposing a multi-billion dollar mining project financed by a u.s. based company opponents claim it will harm the area's ecosystem for water supplies and sheltering local gnomic benefits. tourists may be flocking to the holy land from all over the world but the spiritual journey of some of them comes to an abrupt and passport control israeli airport security is being accused of

overstepping its authority by demanding access to people's private data in an attempt to prevent terrorists from sneaking into the country or cheese poll sleep reports. they come in their millions to touch the hoody now and many of the frustrated seeing little more than the airport instead of touching the holy land they are brushed by a port security and sent home with them goes a large slice of the country's tourism sandra tamale from illinois in the united states was one of the disappointed i handed my passport over and the woman looked at me and said what is your father's name what is your grandfather's name and when i told her she asked to have a say in a waiting room sandra tomorrow we kept warm all was in that time she was interrogated seven times and then the question became focused on my e-mail and what i thought of you and your mail account when i refused to block my g.

mail account that's. all be hiding something. i was asked very plainly are you a terrorist and i didn't know whether it's serious to laugh. israeli airport security was as serious as it could be they didn't believe her story of coming to visit family and taking part in an interfaith conference they also knew she'd been involved in campaigns calling for boycotts and disinvestment from israel a day later she was on a plane back to the united states. sandra's experience is not unique there are many more who have suffered in the same way it appears this experience could be merely the tip of the iceberg this is way beyond anything it's like asking you to go back home and open your safe. see what's there they can find your contact list they can find of where where are your plans where you heading to everything but the thing is that if you're

a terrorist and if you're smart you wipe your laptop before you cross and you have a dummy account so that no one will ever mail it saying let's focus on the beauty of it all but also remember aware of the problem two operators are telling potential tourists what to say. we encourage all of our groups to sure. don't. go in only we're through the worst broke but deleting facebook profiles from setting up fake email addresses doesn't touch on legal questions there certainly is no basis in law whatsoever for them to be asking people for their passwords and usernames and entering their g. mail accounts i find it incredibly difficult to believe that they had obtained a warrant for any of these searches. and so i think it would be very difficult to find a basis in israeli law for this kind of search israel strictness follows

a series of run ins with international activists in recent years hundreds of propellers sitting in demonstrators was stopped from flying into the country recently as israel tightens its grip on who can and cannot. in the holy land police here are t. tel aviv. daniel but so that the business debts are second with him and the clock's ticking down to the european central bank's decision on interest rates aren't they yes we expect rate to be cut. in just over an hour's time of the service yesterday revealed even your strongest economy germany has hit a downturn to discuss this we're joined by charles roberts and charles thanks for joining us first off what effect does the coffin rates actually have. it's not going to make damage difference it's a psychological boost if anything but the markets are pretty well priced in a twenty five basis point rate cut now. i would have thought they should have already last month and then followed up with another cut this month so maybe they

surprise the markets with fifty basis points that begins to make a small difference to the poor in costs of spanish householders for example what the markets are focusing on today is whether or not they might cut or just how much they cut the lowest rates another key rate which will go from one percent to three quarters but the lowest rate which is a quarter percent now they could reduce it to zero if they're being really dramatic they turn in negative so making expensive banks would have to pay the e.c.b. part money the cv these he doesn't really want money at the e.c.b. it wants it lent out to other banks and to the rest of the european economy so that's worth watching in an hour's time both thirty christine legarde was the c.b. to stop buying government bonds again what else could all should the european central bank do. christine legarde is french they've always wanted a more activist central bank the germans have always been much more reluctant and know what i'd be looking for if i was looking for these to act and how to you're

a mortgage market a mortgage you want your debt to be inflated away so you'd like the e.c.b. to be buying as many brands as possible doing everything to try and get inflation up. trouble is that while my will which also reflects spain's position and they would point out the germans the germans don't have so much debts they've got a lot more savings they don't want to inflation and this is telling the e.c.b. to be much more cautious than what the i.m.f. suggesting so let's broaden itself lonely war could the euro be done to help it i mean what is outside the european central bank's hand but what else could be done by powers in brussels for example to save what is what is really worrying situation . you've you've got two or three options the german solution is that everybody is very responsible small budget deficits they all act as if this currency is the gold standard and if you have a gold standard you can't print money to save your to save the situation you have

to work through the problems that's the german solution it's done brilliantly well for germany or switzerland or other countries like that over the last forty to fifty years the other option is fiscal union and that's to ask the germans who are to have debt eighty percent of g.d.p. more than nine times what russia has they already have the ask the germans to then pay money to southern europe that politically just doesn't look possible at the moment or revolt capital between various countries not new in europe thank you very much indeed let's check how european markets are reacting as we gear up to that decision they are gaining slightly they're pretty flat in fact as traders await that decision the euro is low against the dollar of the fairly heavy losses yesterday the ruble is losing some of yesterday's gains here or most. of trading mixed off the posting games from wins the cold is all good news that

capital inflows to russia hit five billion dollars last month and that's all we've got time for me so we'll have more for you next hour all right day i will see that thanks for that update. i next saw you on the news headlines after this short break stay with us to.
